Title: Procede et appareil pour mettre en place un stent dans une lumiere du corps
Inventor: CLERC CLAUDE O
IPC: A61M25/00
Filed: 2002-12-18
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant de mettre en place un stent, en particulier, mais non exclusivement, un stent auto-expansible, dans une lumière du corps. L'appareil comprend un tube extérieur présentant une extrémité proximale et une extrémité distale et dimensionné pour contenir un stent à l'état radialement replié, un tube intérieur placé à l'intérieur du tube extérieur, qui présente une extrémité proximale et une extrémité distale, et un élément de maintien qui comprend au moins un ballon gonflable porté par le tube intérieur à l'emplacement du stent chargé. Le ballon peut être gonflé avant la procédure de mise en place de sorte qu'il exerce une pression contre la surface intérieure du tube extérieure, bloquant ainsi le stent en position longitudinale entre le tube intérieur et le tube extérieur. Grâce à cette disposition, le tube extérieur peut coulisser vers l'extrémité proximale pour libérer le stent, ou vers l'extrémité distale, pour ramener le stent dans le dispositif de mise en place, cela sans glissement intempestif du stent.

Abstract: The present invention provides a paperless billing process for enabling expedited
and simplified payments of print volume bills by customers of printing systems. A
method of performing a billing process for the copies or prints produced by customer
of a printing system is provided where the printing system comprises a memory that
stores product usage data indicating a measurement of the actual use of the printing
system. The printing system first accesses the memory to retrieve the product usage
data. Then, the printing system calculates billing data using the retrieved product
usage data. A bill is presented to the customer based on billing data, and the printing
system receives user input from the customer indicating whether the customer
authorizes the billing data. If so, a message is sent from the printing system to a
billing service, wherein the message includes information indicating the authorized
billing data. Thus, the bills are generated locally by the printing system using the
printer user interface.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des émetteurs à deux fils dans lesquels la tension nécessaire qu'une chambre de commande doit alimenter est inférieure à haute qu'à basse tension, libérant ainsi plus de tension pour d'autres utilisateurs, et dans lesquels un ensemble constant de tension de fonctionnement peuvent être conservé. Une pression corrigée dans un débitmètre de vortex, reflétant le débit de masse, peut  être déterminée. Ainsi, le débit de masse peut être déterminé en fonction de la valeur lue de pression corrigée et du débit volumétrique mesuré. La densité peut être déterminée à partir de la pression et de la température au moyen d'un tableau contenant les valeurs d'erreur basées sur la détermination de la densité standard et une approximation relativement simple. Durant le fonctionnement du débitmètre, les valeurs d'erreur stockées peuvent être linéairement interpolées et l'approximation peut être calculée afin de déterminer la densité à partir de la valeur d'erreur stockée.
